Abstract (en)

An object of the present invention is to provide a novel method for producing L-cysteine in place of a conventional fermentation method. More specifically, the object is to provide a method for producing L-cysteine by the combination of heat-resistant enzymes. In particular, the object is to provide a method for efficiently producing a pathway for synthesizing O-phosphoserine from 3-phosphoglyceric acid (3PG) via phosphohydroxypyruvic acid (HPV). The present invention solved the problem by a method for producing O-phosphoserine including acting phosphoserine aminotransferase (PSAT) and 3-phosphoglycerate dehydrogenase (PGDH) that are each derived from a thermophilic bacterium on 3 PG to generate O-phosphoserine, and a method for producing L-cysteine including the step described above.
